All I did was pair that admission with what the God of the bible had to say about that condition.
Based on how you personally perceive the bible, you saw that her beliefs and actions did not fit, so you judged that her worship was incorrect. The problem here is you believe your interpretation to be the absolutely correct one, and have used your opinion as an objective standard.

However in the cases of those here who have shared their stories of leaving the faith an we see that they may not have actually come to know Christ, what do you think we should do, let a possible false belief become a representation of Christianity. Would you do that if someone came here and said they left their belief in evolution because of something that's not true to the science you understand. No, you would jump on it faster than a duck jumps on a junebug.[bolding mine]
The problem here is in bold. The most important word being "may." The fact that tell you them they did it wrong despite you only suspecting so based upon a paragraph used to describe a complex system of beliefs and actions that were applied over many years was the point I was making.
